Alright, let me give this a go.

Name: Abigail "Abby" Strauss
Codename: Zero
Age: 46
Former/Current Occupation: Security Specialist - paid by various companies to train guards in security and test security systems by trying to get past them herself.
Areas of Expertise/Skills
- Stealth: Abby has had decades of practice getting around tight security, having tested some of the tightest security systems that corrupt businessmen are willing to pay out of pocket for. Guard patrols? Abby's seen it. Trip lasers? Abby's done it. Motion and heat detection? She's got the t-shirt.
- Takedowns: Not great in a straight-up melee confrontation, Abby is able to best deal with enemies at close range when they aren't aware of her presense, using well-placed strikes to render enemies unconscious.
- Psychology: Abby can learn what makes people tick, and can often gauge how someone will react to various stimuli. If she can't find a way past her enemy, perhaps she can discover a way of having them unknowingly create one for her.
Common Tools/Weapons
- Heckler and Koch MP5: A very popular submachine gun used widely by law enforcement, military forces, and corporate security throughout the world. Abby hangs onto this sleek, shiny badass for when she needs to ditch stealth and make with the bodies. Because she expects a lot of enemies to use these guns, extra ammunition in a pinch is usually one takedown away.
- ASP 21": An expandable baton for literally beating someone senseless.
- X3 Taser: Neuromuscular disruption at a distance. Sometimes Abby just doesn't have the time to wait patiently for a takedown opportunity.
Personality and Quirks: Abby has a lot of pride and possesses a "just do your part and I'll do mine" mentality in dealing with others. She has a complex regarding her friends: all of them are married with children while she's still single. Still, she prefers the adrenaline-fueled life over one cooking for a family of four. While she has never taken a human life before, she has come to terms with herself and will not hesitate to do so if necessary. She has no problem showing respect to authority, and strives to be professional most of the time. One would say that Abby acts the way she does because she hasn't experienced normal society for a long time.
Biography and Personal Achievements: Abby was raised in a common life with a common family in a common town. And it drove her apeshit. Many people thought her fantasizing was about wanting to meet a handsome prince on a white horse, but actually Abby wanted to do something a lot more daring.
So she trained herself to become a thief. It...kinda didn't work. She got caught the first time she tried to steal something from a museum, but the one who owned the place, a billionaire tycoon, was impressed by how much she was able to accomplish with such untested skills and hired her for the strange career of "security specialist". So she broke into his businesses and evaded his guards like before, except she was getting paid to test how effective they were, instead of trying to take what they were protecting. Her successes or failures helped him determine how he would best alter his security for his own businesses.
And because of her skills, he even introduced her to other people across the world who could use someone to do the same thing against their security systems.
And now it seems like a new opportunity has crossed her doorstep.
Additional Notes: Her blonde hair, the mole just above her lips, and her breasts aren't fake. And if you ask her again, you've got a baton to the face comin'.
